Fly Fishing Film Tour 2010
Orlando Science Center, Friday, May 14th. Doors open at 6:00 and show starts at 7:30.
Join Orlando Outfitters and Hell's Bay Boatworks for the 2010 Fly Fishing Film Tour. Tickets on sale now at the Orlando Outfitters Online-Store and in the shop. You can stop by, call or order online. Ticket prices are $15, including tax, when purchased in advance or $20 the day of the show.
What is it?
Two hours of varied footage showing places you'll want to go and fish you'll want to catch. Some of the highlights may include New Zealand brown trout in Once in a Blue Moon, Australian permit in Heads or Tails, huge snook and tarpon in the Everglades in High in the Lowlands and unique fishing in a variety of locations in Off the Grid. The footage shown is a series of fly fishing shorts, some of which will eventually be made available as feature length films. The Film Tour guys are changing up the footage for different showings so we don't know yet which shorts we will be showing.
And then there are the raffle prizes. We will be raffling off items from Galvan Fly Reels, Scott Rods, Airflo Lines, Kaenon Sunglasses and more.
The proceeds from this event will be donated to Bonefish & Tarpon Trust (www.tarbone.org) to help with their ongoing research and public awareness projects. Last year we raised almost $5,000 for Bonefish and Tarpon Trust. Help us write them a big check again this year!
The Sponsors:
The Orlando Fly Fishing Film Tour is brought to you by Orlando Outfitters and Hell's Bay Boatworks and is sponsored by a wide variety of our friends in the fly fishing industry. A number of our vendors have also donated products to be raffled off and more items are coming in.

- What Happens to the Money?
The proceeds of this event will be given to Bonefish & Tarpon Trust (www.tarbone.org) to help with their research and conservation efforts with two of our favorite flats species. Though tarpon and bonefish are two of the most popular game fish in Florida waters relatively little is know about their life histories.
Because they are not considered a food species in the US there is little federal effort to study them. BTT works, mainly through volunteer effort, to fill the void. As they state on their web site " . . . a species can’t be conserved or managed if little is known about the species’ biology and ecology."
